Hi Nel, agree with ur sentiments, but just need to get a few facts right (no offence lol). I think u meant when they first "started", not "listed".
Before Google's IPO, everyone already had high expectation.
Facebook is never listed, but Microsoft valued it at 15bl USD.
If MMZ's to go down social gaming path, then Zynga & Playfish will obviously be the industry leaders (& it'l take a while for MMZ/Hotshot to prove they can establish themselves within the industry).
Zynga, founded in Jul 2007, will go IPO this yr. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zynga)
Playfish, founded in 2007, was acquired by EA for 275ml or 400ml? (cant remember now) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfish
MMZ/Hotshot will have a tough road ahead if they ever wanna become as 1/10th successful as the industry leaders, but any success in this industry starts from nothing.
Like DM said, nothing wrong with having a little dream in life lol.
GL all JL
